Question: Do you use an outside service or your own employees for custodial and janitorial services?
Answer: For 10 years we employed our own janitorial staff. Every 2-3 years I accepted quotes from outside vendors to confirm that this method is the best stewardship decision. Four months ago we changed and went with an outside janitorial service when I had two quotes indicate that we were now paying 20% too much for these services. The transition has been challenging but worth the savings.
